BSA Comments on Potential Shopify California Lawsuit
MediaPost
By Wendy Davis
The IAB and others, including the Apple-backed group ACT--The App Association and BSA | The Software Alliance, say Shopify is only a “backend service provider” and shouldn't have to defend itself in every state where its client does business.
“Shopify made its online payment services available for use by vendors anywhere in the country,” the groups argue.
“A business located in California chose to make use of Shopify’s software by integrating it into its own online store, and the plaintiff then made a purchase from that online store while located in California,” the IAB and others add. “In these circumstances, it is not the backend service provider that has targeted end consumers in California.”
